Just finished double banking on Hanna Series 2.
Although staying on a smaller cart set up it got an upgrade with a small patch bay for 8 inputs and outputs. This is a 10.5inch 1U rack option that can be good for smaller set-ups. Also it featured a smaller power unit- PSC Powerstar Euro life- http://professionalsound.com/specs/powerStarEuroLiFE.htm
This gave me an extra 20AH battery for back up and AC power supply so it can act more like a big cart. It works really well and has 8 outputs and 4 USB ports.
It was also the first time working at the end of the shoot dates with a fully female team. Go team!

Top Boy Season 3- Netflix
Top Boy is soon to be back on the screens, having taken time out for a few years. It has moved from channel 4 to Netflix and follows the stories of Dushane and Sully again.
Written By Ronan Bennet and Produced by Cowboy Films. Season 3 is 10 episodes long and will air in July 2019.
My team and I did the sound on 7 of the episodes and it was a pleasure to work with so many directors and the family of people within the crew. #setlife #crewlife
Here is the mini cart hard at work on Top Boy. On it has the Sound Devices 688 and Wisycom radio mics in a distro. The nice thing about my mini cart is that it is always bag ready. The mixer, radio mic distro with batteries and comms can be taken off the cart quickly and thrown over the shoulder for any eventuality. Many locations were small and hard to access so having a smaller rig was really beneficial. It did not give me the option for patchbays, or lots of power distribution but it did give me the option for easy access of locations and being lightweight. Sometimes you have to give up some things to gain others.
